The worst movie of each year

Via Graphiq

Ever year, we celebrate the best of the best in the film and music industries. Awards ceremonies like the Oscars and the Grammys honor those who excel in their craft, and whose work will be remembered for generations to come.

Among the crop of movies released every year, however, there are others that many would like to forget. PrettyFamous, an entertainment data site by Graphiq, found the worst movie released each year. To determine the bottom of the barrel, PrettyFamous searched through its database of movies and found the film with the lowest Smart Rating each year. The Smart Rating is a score out of 100 that takes into account a movie's IMDb rating, Rotten Tomatoes Tomatometer and Audience Score, Gracenote rating, Metacritic Metascore and the inflation-adjusted U.S. box office gross. To account for older movies which have fewer reviews than their modern counterparts, PrettyFamous only included movies with more than 10,000 IMDb votes.Note: Plot summaries were sourced (with minor edits) from Gracenote.
